I made this for today's sketch challenge. It will go to a gentleman at church who has been sick for a while now.
The background behind the tree is brayered, which is so fun and easy to do. Thanks again, to Michelle Zindorf for her classes. I used my new Autumn Meadows DSP...LOVE it! I also used the champagne shimmer paint on some of the leaves...but, OF COURSE, it doesn't show up in the picture. It gives it a soft golden shimmer IRL, though.
I like how this one turned out. Hope you do, too. TFL!

Beautiful! I especially like how you did the leaves on the ground. I'm always looking for how to "anchor" a piece so it doesn't look like suspended. The moon is perfect.

Did I comment on this already? Well, it deserves two comments. Great job on the brayering and love the colors and ribbon.
